C16 Giana Sisters

[Stinky]

I've had some trouble trying to run this port on the C16 core. Anyone had success/can confirm before I flag it?

For me it loads, but a run shows noting. Not sure how long to wait...

The MiST core needed an update to run Giana Sisters, it is a safe bet the MiSTer core would also need one.

The loader for the game tries to identify what emulator you are using and seems to hang. I am not sure how it runs on a real machine for comparison but if you want to at least get into the game, don't load the first program, load MI instead:

Code: Select all

LOAD "MI",8,1

It will take a while...you should see the led on mister stay on for a while.

Thanks, that works for me. But the loading took realy long.
Very good port for C16 / Plus4.
Not thought that the TED could do such cool things.

Hmm, with C16 mode i get then an error that the game data is corrupt. Cant start a game.
I am tried the Plus4 Mode, but that seems the same.

[Flandango]

Yup. Looks like it relies on the loader...which isn't working

Thanks, I see this too https://masto.ai/@mistboard/112223359333458765

Will raise in mister git.

I've not tried it yet, but the c16 core was updated on the 12th, 2 days ago. Might fix it, might not, but if so, let's us know. Thanks!

[niallquinn]

Just to add it's just the code that's been updated, so no rbf yet. But if anyone can compile it, and post it as a test version?

[Stinky]

Oh yeah Sorgelig fixed it, still needs the mwin rbf but works as expected. Try it out here.

Well spotted! I just saw that the source had been updated, I didn't see the test download attached to the issue. Thanks, and of course thanks to Sorg!!
